**Belial’s Brood **

The Forsaken Scourge

Savannah’s Kindred know better than to dismiss whispers in the dark. And when those whispers speak of Belial’s Brood, they carry the weight of blood and fire.

What Every Kindred Knows

Belial’s Brood—often just called The Brood—are vampires who reject The Traditions, forsaking everything that binds the Damned together. They are monsters in the truest sense, reveling in destruction, chaos, and their worship of darkness itself.

They do not cling to humanity or struggle against the Beast. They embrace it freely, welcoming their descent into something worse than mere predators.

• They do not fear the Hunger—they become it.
• They do not seek power within the Court—they seek to tear it down.
• They do not suffer the Masquerade—they believe in bringing Hell to Earth.

The Blood Magics of the Brood

The Brood wield blood sorcery that no other Kindred has been able to replicate. Some claim it is infernal in nature, tied to the demonic forces they revere, while others insist it is a lost discipline, warped through madness and blood sacrifice.

What is known is this: it is real, it is powerful, and it is not understood.

The War on Savannah

Savannah learned firsthand what it means to be in the sights of Belial’s Brood.

In 2023, the Brood launched a coordinated attack on the city, striking against Elysiums, Family Estates, and even Kindred Havens. The Court nearly collapsed, with elders and neonates alike meeting Final Death.

It was a war fought in the streets, in the shadows, and in the very minds of Kindred who dared to resist. And though the Brood was driven out, it was a pyrrhic victory. The price was steep, and the wounds still linger.

The Brood in Atlanta

Now, the whispers have returned.

Reports say that Belial’s Brood has begun resurfacing in Atlanta. They are gathering, rebuilding their numbers, and preparing for something. No one knows what.

Are they returning to Savannah? Are they plotting something even worse?

What is certain is that they have not forgotten this city. And if history has taught anything, it is that the Brood never lets a grudge die.

Stay vigilant. Stay wary. The war may not be over.
